The Oba of Benin, Omo N’ Oba N’ Edo, Uku Akpolokpolo, Ewuare II, has said his ancestors founded some parts of Lagos and can be proven through history books.

The Herald reports that Oba Ewuare II made the revelation during his visit to Lagos on Sunday where he was received by the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Addressing an audience, the monarch said, “I cannot help but say that it is in history books that Benin founded Lagos. But when some people hear it now they go haywire that ‘what is the Oba saying?’ But it is true o. Go and check the records. Maybe not all of Lagos as we know it now but certain areas in Lagos – maybe the nucleus -was founded by my ancestors. The Oba of Lagos will say so.”

Gbam. Oba otokpee. Kasala don burst. The real and original owners of Lagos have come. Sanwo Olu and his people - The Land grabers must hear this. Enough of this nonsense by the Yorubas. Lagos belongs to the Edo people not you thieves.

The oba has spoken straight from the horse’s mouth. We all can rest and focus on healing from the cancer called tribalism
